All that glitters is not gold but sometimes a diamond in the rough.

I beg to differ Scott.  Perhaps Gratefuled would be grateful if he does attend that rugby game in Manila.  But the Filipino game is called RubMe with these beautiful Cherry Leaders performing at halftime: That's my cousin....lefty cheeky

And Football, Baseball and Basketball are sports unlike a two day cricket match or a bunch of undersized men with an oversized football and no pads doing who knows what in a "scrum"

Rugby is a hard game played by hard men who don't feel the need to wear a space suit to protect themselves. In the uk, rounders (baseball) is girls game and "soccer" is football to give it the correct name. As for cricket, only test matches last for days, most cricket is one day matches with set amount of overs per side.

Five days actually, test matches are. Nothing better than watching a Boxing Day test between Aust and the old enemy England clash at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in front of a full house 100,000 + people, cracking a tinny, fire up the barbie and watch Lillee streaming into bowl Tony Grieg a 100mph bouncer which goes singing past his ear. It's all about balls, no balls, maidens, hooks, pulls, silly mid off's , cover points just to name a few, many a happy day with mates and now departed family watching. Then coming back again the next day to watch the flannel fools resume hostilities.
